Event Details

Join us for the inagural Berkeley Half Marathon this November--(the Sunday before Thanksgiving weekend)! We've created a point-to-point race that highlights Berkeley’s favorite spots--from the city center to UC Berkeley and the beautiful waterfront. Choose from three events: a 1/2 marathon, 10 mile, and 10K race.

The race starts at Civic Center Park, wraps around the west side of the UC Berkeley Campus, then continues straight to the heart of funky Berkeley on University Ave, passing local shops and parks on the way to the marina. At mile 4, the course turns south along the waterfront, along the Berkeley Marina, turns around to head north to Cesar Chavez Park, looping around the park, exposing breathtaking sights of the SF skyline and the Bay. Finally, the route continues north for a finish and celebration at Golden Gate Fields.
